Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3479 King Qi Li You
The grievances between the Guzang Yin clan and the Longxi Li clan have a long history.

Concubine Yinde and Yin Hongzhi's father, Yin Shishi, was the son of Yinshou, a famous founding general of the Sui Dynasty.After Emperor Yang of Sui came to the throne, Shishi Yin was loyal to Emperor Yang of Sui "because of the grace of the world and the old mansion", and Emperor Yang of Sui also trusted and valued him very much, so he moved him to be the prefect of Zhangye , after Yin Shishi repelled the rebellion of Dangxiang and Tuyuhun, he even granted General Zuo Yiwei the military power.

Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty visited Goguryeo himself and conquest of Goguryeo. He granted Yin Shishi to stay in Xijing, and assisted the acting king Yang You to guard Chang'an.

In the 13th year of Daye, Tang Guogong Li Yuan raised troops in Taiyuan. At that time, only Li Yuan and his son Li Shimin were in Taiyuan. The eldest son Li Jiancheng, the third son Li Yuanji and the common son Li Zhiyun were all in their hometown in Longxi.Yin Shishi immediately sent people to search for it. Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji fled to Taiyuan, but they abandoned Li Zhiyun. As a result, 14-year-old Li Zhiyun was captured by the Sui army and taken to Chang'an. Yin Shishi ordered to behead him.

So, Yin Shishi still refused to give up, and ordered to "distribute his tomb and destroy his five temples", destroy the family temple of the Li family, and dig up the ancestral grave of the Li family.

This was regarded as a punishment for a traitor by a loyal minister of the Sui Dynasty, but it was an unbearable humiliation for the Li family.

Afterwards, Li Yuan led an army to attack Chang'an, and Yin Shishi defended the city desperately, but was finally defeated and captured.Li Yuan hated him bitterly. Although he was very magnanimous in order to win people's hearts, many civil and military generals of the Sui Dynasty ignored the past and even entrusted them with important tasks, but he was merciless towards Yin Shishi, "Jie Yin Shishi, Gu Yi, etc. They are greedy and harsh, and they reject righteous teachers and kill them all."

However, in order to appease people's hearts, only Yin Shishi was beheaded, but his two sons and daughters were forgiven and thrown into the court.

His wife, Yue'e, was very beautiful, and was given by Li Yuan to his son Li Shimin as a concubine. He was deeply loved by Li Shimin, and he left Li Shimin's fifth son, Li You.Because of this, after His Majesty Li Er ascended the throne, Yin Hongzhi was released from Yeting, and Li You was granted the title of King of Qi, and Yin Hongzhi was appointed Chief History Officer of the Prince of Qi.

……

Right now, Changsun Wuji came to the door to support Li You as the crown prince, and it is more likely that he will inherit the Datong and ascend the throne as emperor in the future. How could Yin Hongzhi not be overjoyed?

He can't forget the sad past when his father died tragically and his family was confiscated, which made him change from a well-clothed and well-fed son to a bereaved dog, and finally went to the Yeting court to suffer exhaustion and humiliation.

How happy would it be if Li You, King of Qi, whose bloodline flowed from the Guzang Yin clan, finally got Li Tang's Jiangshan Guozuo?
Changsun Wuji walked to the gate of King Qi's mansion, paused, and asked, "Does King Qi know that this old man is here?"

Yin Hongzhi said: "I don't know for now, I dare not reveal Zhao Guogong's whereabouts at will, just in case something happens."

He knew that Changsun Wuji sneaked back to Chang'an from Liaodong secretly, and secretly presided over the overall situation of the remonstrance. Outsiders didn't know about it, so he didn't tell Qi Wang Li You about his intention to visit in advance.Li You's character is a bit sloppy and reckless, and he has a very rebellious mentality. No one can predict how he will react when he finds out that the Guanlongmen Clan wants to push him to the top position...

Changsun Wuji nodded, and then stepped into the gate of the mansion, with Yin Hongzhi leading the way, the two of them were silent, and came all the way to the back house of Prince Qi's mansion.

In front of the door of a sleeping hall, dozens of forbidden guards had already stood in front of the door. When they saw Yin Hongzhi coming, they pushed to the sides to let out the door.

Obviously, Yin Hongzhi has already controlled the Qi Palace...

Changsun Wuji was very satisfied, as long as Li You was under Yin Hongzhi's control, there would be no room for Li You to refuse.Ordinarily, such a good thing is simply a godsend, who in the world is not eager for that position?But since there are lessons learned from the two brothers Li Zhi and Li Tai, Changsun Wuji also has to think about what to do if Li You also refuses to be on the reserve position...

When the two came to the door, Yin Hongzhi said loudly: "Your Highness, Mr. Zhao Guogong, please see me!"

A voice full of surprise came from the hall: "Who are you talking about?"

Yin Hongzhi glanced at the stern-faced eldest grandson Wuji, and said again: "It's Mr. Zhao who is asking to see you!"

"Ah! Isn't Zhao Guogong in Liaodong with his father to conquer Goguryeo? Please, please!"

Li You in the hall was surprised at first, and then hurriedly summoned him.

Yin Hongzhi bowed slightly, and asked Changsun Wuji to go first. Changsun Wuji nodded and walked into the hall, followed by Yin Hongzhi.

The hall was brightly lit, and several maids with delicate faces were carrying tea, pastries, etc., and placed them on a coffee table one by one. King Qi Li You was dressed in ordinary clothes, and was lazily leaning on the soft couch behind the coffee table. It wasn't until Changsun Wuji entered that he sat up straight.

Changsun Wuji stepped forward, bowed to the ground, and said respectfully: "The old minister has an audience with His Highness."

Li You waved his hand casually, yawned, and said: "You are always a noble relative of the country, and you have worked hard and made great achievements. How can this king bear such courtesy? Come, come, please take a seat. It just so happens that this king is a little hungry. They have prepared tea and pastries, and in the middle of the night, Mr. Zhao Guogong must have not had a meal, so they just happened to pad his stomach together."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Changsun Wuji didn't refuse either, Wen Yan took two steps forward, knelt down and sat down under Li You, while Yin Hongzhi sat down on the other side, then waved his hand to drive away all the maids in the hall.

Li You glanced at his uncle, then at the serious eldest grandson Wuji, picked up a piece of cake, chewed and swallowed it in his mouth, then sighed, and said, "Mr. Instead, I contacted my uncle first... There must be nothing good. But since Zhao Guogong is here, no matter what is good or bad, I might as well listen to it. Speak, you left the messy rebels in the city and ran to Ben In this palace of the king, why did you come here?"

His tone was not very polite, because he didn't like Changsun Wuji.

As the patriarch of the eldest grandson's family, in the eyes of the eldest grandson Wuji, only the three sons born by Empress Wende have always been in his eyes. How could the concubine princes like King Wu, King Qi, and King Yue ever put them in the eyes of the eldest grandson Wuji?Usually when they meet each other, they only show courtesy and don't raise their eyelids.

Even Li You was better. After all, he had a perverted personality and willful behavior. He never liked his father and did not pose any threat to the reserve position. Changsun Wuji didn't bother to talk to him.A prince with outstanding ability and decisiveness like Wu Wang was often oppressed by his eldest grandson Wuji.

But even if he doesn't like Changsun Wuji in his heart, he doesn't dare to be too presumptuous. No matter how stupid he is, he knows that the current Hecheng rebels are controlled by Changsun Wuji. How dare he dare to risk the displeasure of the world, how can a mere king of Qi be able to contend with his viciousness and violence?
I am both jealous and unhappy, very entangled...

Changsun Wuji's kneeling posture is very standard. Hearing this, he leaned his upper body slightly forward to show respect, and said in a deep voice: "The East Palace has no virtue, and it acts against the law, and there are complaints from inside and outside Chang'an! Your Majesty has long had the ambition to be easy to store, but he just can't bear to kill each other. , so I endured it. At present, the people, civilians, and troops from all over the country are not angry with the rule of the Eastern Palace. When the government is in turmoil and the country is in turmoil, you should stand up, stop fighting, and order the subjects of the world to put things right!"

He didn't care much about Li You's attitude, so what if he was dissatisfied with him?In the past, although Li You was a prince, he had no weight in his eyes.In the future, if I can single-handedly push him to the throne of the crown prince or even the emperor, I will naturally be able to control him steadily.

To be obedient and obedient would naturally be indispensable for him to be rich and powerful. If he doesn't know the current affairs... What's the difficulty between abolition and establishment?

Li You still had the same yawning look just before, but when he heard Changsun Wuji's words, his eyes widened in an instant, and all the drowsiness disappeared.

He opened his mouth wide and gasped in disbelief: "Zhao... Zhao Guogong said what? Uh, this king is dull and doesn't understand what it means."

Yin Hongzhi said from the side: "Your Highness, Zhao Guogong's intention is that the rebel army is entering the city to carry out military remonstrance in order to dethrone the Eastern Palace. However, the country cannot be without a king for a day. Your Majesty is currently in Liaodong. The crown prince authorized the supervision of the country. After being deposed, it is necessary to register the crown prince immediately. Zhao Guogong and the Guanlong family know that His Highness is loyal, filial, benevolent, heroic and decisive, and intend to support His Highness as the Crown Prince, but I don’t know what His Highness would like?"

"Ho..."

Li You suddenly felt a mouthful of thick phlegm stuck in his throat, unable to swallow or spit it out, making him breathless.

He quickly sat up straight and breathed hard, but his whole body trembled uncontrollably...
